Nicholas Hoult, known for his roles in X-Men, Superman and Mad Max: Fury Road, has been cast in the hotly anticipated Harry Potter TV series.

The TV adaptation of JK Rowling’s best-selling books will reach screens this Christmas, although Hoult will not be seen until season two.

HBO announced the casting, external by quoting the title of Lockhart’s autobiography and one of his famous lines: “Magical me indeed. Now, how many autographs would you like? Nicholas Hoult has been cast as Gilderoy Lockhart in season two of the new HBO original Harry Potter series.”
